CONFERENCE
OVERVIEW:
By Mid-Year
2010, experts are predicting an increase in Middle-Market M&A
deal flow in all sectors – however, HEALTHCARE will continue
to lead all others. And iiBIG is proud to return to Chicago to present
our industry-leading “Investment
and M&A Opportunities in HEALTHCARE”
conference at the Drake Hotel in downtown Chicago!
At
our next Chicago event, you’ll hear from experts and insiders
on the status of deal-making in the healthcare sector; and how and
where the deals are getting done. Hear from over 40 leading investors,
deal-makers and private sector and non-profit health care leaders
on:
-
How will key players be positioning themselves to capitalize on
the inevitable growth in health care spending?
-
How
will federal incentives to expand the use of information technologies
create investment and growth opportunities?
-
Who
will be leading the deal-making pace: Strategic or Financial Buyers?
-
How
will the 2010 Congressional elections affect the business of healthcare?
-
How
will changes in Medicare reimbursement policies affect business
models?
-
Which
sectors within the health care industry show the greatest potential
for growth?
-
Financing
the Deal: Where will the money come from to do the deals?
-
What
are the best Due Diligence Strategies to adopt in order to manage
risk and insure success?
-
Will
IPOs make a Comeback?
Fundamental
demand in healthcare is driven by aging populations, advances in medical
technology, and increased access to healthcare in emerging countries.
While
overall M&A activity declined during the economic downturn, deals
in the Healthcare sector continued to get done. Now that financing
is becoming easier to find, pent up demand for deals in the middle-markets
– and especially in this sector – are expected to increase
dramatically. At this conference, you will meet the deal-makers at
the forefront of the action.
Whether
you are an experienced healthcare investor and deal-maker; or you
are looking for ideas and information on how to transfer your skills
and talents into this thriving and lucrative sector, you do not want
to miss, iiBIG’s
Mid-Year 2010 “Investment & M&A Opportunities
